Chapter 179: Chapter 181: So This is President Ashton!
Cody Aberton: "..."
He never expected President Ashton to be like this!
He always seemed so serious.
But he’s actually cooing over his spouse during working hours.
Moreover, he doesn’t avoid doing it in front of his subordinates!
Cody Aberton, the essence of a single man, walked into the office with resentment, carrying a document in his hand.
"President Ashton." He presented the report, "This is the latest financial statement for this quarter."
"Mm." Ashton Heath took it, acknowledging nonchalantly, "Announce that we’ll finish work one hour early today."
Cody Aberton: "?!?"
He lifted his head in surprise, his face full of disbelief, fearing he might have misheard: "Finish work one hour early?"
He must be dreaming.
"What, you don’t want to?" Ashton Heath glanced at him. His facial expression was no different than usual, but his eyes held a certain delight seldom seen before.
Cody Aberton looked at him, then at Joanna Lawrence in his arms, and quickly realized something.
Indeed, being in love does change people.
Even President Heath, deeply in love, was no exception.
He seemed to be... more affable and human than usual.
For the first time in his life, he was able to finish work early. Even if it was just one hour earlier, Cody Aberton felt particularly pleased.
He immediately responded: "I will, I will. I’ll make the announcement right away."
"Mm, go ahead."
Ashton Heath waved at him, signaling he could leave.
Not daring to linger, Cody Aberton hurriedly left, leaving the space for the couple.
Once he had left, only Ashton Heath and Joanna Lawrence were left in the office.
As Ashton Heath held Joanna, he began looking over the financial statement.
Joanna Lawrence waited a while in his arms before realizing he had no intention of letting her go. She looked up at him, bit her lip, and muttered softly: "Can you let me go now?"
The man lowered his head with a bewitching look in his eyes, "Hmm?"
"Don’t you still have work to do?" Joanna glanced at the financial statement in his hand, "I will disrupt you."
"No."
Ashton Heath smiled faintly, instantly making Joanna’s heart flutter: "Holding you makes me work more efficiently. Just let me hold you for a bit longer, then I can finish work sooner, and I’ll be with you."
Joanna Lawrence: "..."
Who wants him to accompany her anyway?
After Ashton Heath finished speaking, he stroked her head and continued to peruse the financial statement.
He quickly entered his working mode again, adopting a serious attitude that enthralls and tempts Joanna.
In the meantime, he stopped teasing her.
Joanna lay in his arms for a while until drowsiness overcame her.
*
When she awoke, she found herself in a different place.
She was still in Ashton Heath’s arms, but he had moved her to the car.
She rubbed her eyes, looked at the buildings whirling past outside the car window, and after a moment of blurred vision, she asked in a soft voice: "Where are we going?"
Her voice was naturally soft, sweet, and sultry.
Just waking up, she sounded even more charming and slightly dazed, which made Ashton Heath fond of her voice.
He lowered his head, using his slender, fair fingers to lift her chin, and kissed her.
The still dazed Joanna Lawrence: "Ooh..."
When the man’s unexpected kiss was about to make her fall asleep again, he finally released her swelling lips with a deep gaze.
